The Cisco UCS M142 Compute Cartridge is the core component of the UCS M-series Modular Server solution. It delivers a unique infrastructure to meet the needs of today's highly parallelized and distributed applications. This design allows Cisco to abstract server sub-systems fully into the infrastructure, completely off the compute nodes.

The UCS M-series design also allows for smaller increments of scale, letting your applications have the number of compute nodes that they require to achieve the desired performance and availability. No more over-provisioning. No more wasted resources. Everything is under a single management tool for easy scale and management transparency.

With this groundbreaking design, the UCS M-series provides a highly dense, modular, and power-efficient platform designed to meet the needs of parallelized workload.
